Mysterious mirror hanging high

Jing Yu left the Song Family Ancestral Hall and saw Sun Baiyuan standing alone at the door. He felt strange:

"Master White Ape, where is Jinghong?"

Sun Baiyuan looked up at him and said slowly, "I asked Jinghong to go back and retreat. She is at a critical stage now and cannot neglect her studies. She cannot let the affairs of the clan get in the way."

"How is the real person in there?"

Jing Yu whispered, "Master wants to be alone and quiet, no one is allowed to disturb him."

Sun Baiyuan nodded, closed his eyes slightly, but suddenly frowned and sighed:

"It's really hard to be a good person."

Jing Yu was feeling somewhat puzzled, but Sun Baiyuan had already grabbed him and flown out of the yard. He looked down intently, and saw a group of direct descendants of the Song family kneeling at the wall outside the ancestral hall, crying and wailing. These direct descendants were all from Song Qingya's branch, and they were all dressed in linen clothes, with white scarves on their heads, dressed in funeral attire. It seemed that they were here to ask for an explanation.

"Shut up! What's the point of being stuck here?"

Sun Baiyuan waved his sleeves and attacked with a burst of golden elixir magic power, immediately knocking all the direct lineage cultivators who were kneeling on the spot to the ground. Many low-level cultivators with poor cultivation were thrown several feet away, and were covered with bruises.

Sun Baiyuan shouted angrily, "Go back home! Don't embarrass yourself here!"

Although Sun Baiyuan has been the head of the family for many years on behalf of Song Jianxu, due to his awkward status, he has always adopted a policy of appeasement. Most of the cultivators in the Human Race are not afraid of this Jindan Zhenren.

This was the first time he saw Sun Baiyuan so angry and use such drastic measures. He was stunned for a moment and even stopped crying.

"You still dare to stay? Do you really want me to kill someone to establish my authority?"

Seeing that the White Ape Immortal was about to get really angry, the Song family's direct lineage cultivators finally woke up from their dream, helped several injured clansmen and quickly left, with no intention of staying here at all.

Jing Yu stole a glance at Sun Baiyuan and was about to say something when Sun Baiyuan waved her hand to stop her. "You and Qingya entered the ancient secret realm together, but Qingya died there. The direct lineage cultivators will inevitably take their anger out on you. I sent them away because I didn't want you to be affected."

"Thank you, Master White Ape, for rescuing me."

Sun Baiyuan seemed to be thinking of something in the past. His expression became vague and unclear. He said solemnly, "It's as it should be... Now the clan is counting on you and Jinghong to form a dan. You are a bunch of useless things!"

After bidding farewell to Sun Baiyuan, Jing Yu went to the Song family's library alone, went straight to the fourth floor, took out the bronze key, and pressed it on the forbidden formation.

Sure enough, a ripple dissipated and the formation opened. Jing Yu walked up the stairs and looked into the fourth floor. What came into view was a slightly cramped space. This was already the top floor of the library. The area was far less spacious than the first three floors. There were only two lonely bookshelves, and there were only a dozen jade slips on the shelves.

Jing Yu picked up a jade slip and probed it into his mind. He found that there were no additional blockades or restrictions in the jade slip. It was completely defenseless. He thought to himself:

"Master Song said he only gave me the secret technique of condensing magic pills, but in fact, he also gave me the Song family's most advanced secret technique..."

He strolled between two rows of bookshelves, picked up the jade slips and looked at them one by one, and soon memorized the contents.

"[Heavenly Scheme Divination Sword Scripture: Golden Elixir Chapter], does it require Golden Elixir power to practice? Write it down first."

"[Yin Huai Dao Jiazi Corpse Refining Technique]?"

Jing Yu was surprised and asked, "A method of refining corpses?"

In fact, not all remains of high-level cultivators are suitable for refining into zombies. After all, the physical and spiritual conditions of each cultivator are very different, and the same method of refining corpses may not be suitable for most corpses.

Therefore, cultivators who practice corpse refining are not particularly mainstream even in the magic world. Only corpses that are naturally suitable for corpse refining or corpses that have practiced special skills during their lifetime can be refined. For example, Jing Yu now has the remains of the golden elixir of a real person from the Wang family, but it would most likely be difficult to refine it into a flying corpse.

For example, the remains of Zhu Shentong's Nascent Soul actually developed consciousness on its own, and the corpse transformed into a Nascent Soul flying zombie. It would be great if one such thing could come out after the death of a thousand Nascent Soul cultivators. It really requires the right time, place and people.

Otherwise, how could the high-level cultivators in the world of immortal cultivation find peace after their deaths? They would all be dug out and trained into flying zombies and walking corpses, and would immediately become a useful fighting force.

Jing Yu carefully examined this [Yin Huai Dao Jiazi Corpse Refining Technique] and said, "Tsk... Using the Nine Netherworld Yin Qi to gather Yin spirits and refine them into Yin corpses, the conditions are truly harsh, and it requires so many rare and precious spiritual materials. I'm afraid ordinary Jindan cultivators can't afford it."

"It will take a full sixty years of purification with Yin energy in a suitable location before it can become a corpse. If you want to speed up the process, you will have to pay a huge price..."

“Useless… Really useless.”

Jing Yu immediately gave up the idea of ​​using the remains of Wang Jia Zhenren's golden elixir to refine a Yin corpse. With sixty years of time, how could he have any use for a Yin corpse that barely reached the threshold of the golden elixir stage?

"[The Essentials of the Nine Streams School's Disguise]."

"Jindan-level disguise technique? That's quite rare."

"[Fish-Dragon Transformation: Golden Elixir Chapter]."

"The follow-up to the major in escape techniques? Sure enough, I found the follow-up on the fourth floor!"

Jing Yu happily copied a copy, then picked up the next jade slip, placed it against his forehead, and probed with his spiritual sense:

"[The Secret Art of the Zhoutian Starry Sky, Spinning Clouds, and Forming Pills]!"

Jing Yu was excited: "Found it, this is it!"

He opened the jade slip, read it carefully, and nodded with satisfaction:

"Using the mana in the Dantian to imitate the positions of the stars in the celestial sphere, condensing them into the shape of a nebula, it improves the quality of the Dan. This does not conflict with the Blood and Qi Dan and Divine Mind Dan techniques, and can be used in combination... What a secret technique!"

With his current eyesight, which is almost considered top-notch among the foundation-building cultivators, he could see at a glance the rarity of this secret technique of mana-condensing pills, which was definitely not comparable to the common stuff like [mana-condensing pills]. When Song Jianxu said that it was not inferior to the secret treasures of the immortals, he was not exaggerating.

The most rare thing is that this secret technique is also mixed with some astrology. If the user is proficient in divination, the effect will be even better. Jing Yu's divination skills have improved by leaps and bounds in recent years, which is just right for this!

Having obtained what he wanted, Jing Yu was in a good mood. He went down to the fourth floor, locked the formation, and returned to his retreat room. He thought to himself:

"Now that I have all the secret techniques for forming the elixir of essence, energy, and spirit, I don't need any spiritual objects for forming the elixir. Once I have perfected my magic power for the foundation-building stage, I will go to Master Song and ask for a normal-quality [Crystal Condensing Pill], and then I can begin forming the elixir."

Thinking of this, Jing Yu focused his mind slightly, took out a white jade porcelain bottle from his storage bag, poured out a foundation-building elixir that would enhance his cultivation, swallowed it, sat cross-legged, drew a circle on his lower abdomen with his hands, and began to refine the medicinal power, breathing in and out spiritual energy...
